Hi again, I just applied quite some patches from the BTS to dropbear's initramfs support and uploaded a new package. Thanks for all the contributions! Generally I'm with upstream who wrote in bug#692932: > As Dropbear upstream I'm keen to see this fixed. Given how > many Debian Dropbear bugs are in the initramfs portion, > perhaps the initramfs setup of Dropbear should go into its > own package for people who want it? So here again my call for help, or better a new maintainer for the initramfs functionality, prabably in a separate package. I'd be happy to split this out.
